Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 56 56



Setsuka, Kaede, and Hijiri ran through the forest, searching for the students scattered by the wyvern's attack. They encountered several goblins and lone wolves along the way, but they could easily kill them. Setsuka running in the front, remained silent without saying anything after she left the big hole.

"Setsuka." Kaede worked up the courage to speak to Setsuka, who was currently in a very bad mood.

"What's wrong, Kaede?" Setsuka responded indifferently.

"May I know who the person who saved you was? You said it several times but didn't even mention his name." Kaede was curious about the person who had saved Setsuka and brought tears to her eyes. Hijiri quietly drew closer to Setsuka to hear their conversation more clearly because she was also curious about it.

"You've met him before, Kaede. He's one of the first-year students I asked for information on and who you call the weakest." Setsuka answered.

"What!?" Kaede and Hijiri were shocked and stopped their pace after they heard Setsuka's words.

"Why did you stop? Shouldn't we quickly find the other students?" Setsuka said unhappily. If it weren't for their words about her responsibilities as student council president, she would have gone into that big hole to look for Tenku by now.

Setsuka ignored the two and ran at full speed, leaving them behind. She wanted to quickly gather the students and hand them over to the senior Realizers or the teachers. After that, Setsuka can return to that hole to find Tenku.

"Ah, yes. You are right." Kaede and Hijiri nodded and quickly chased after Setsuka. It didn't take them long to catch up with Setsuka as his pace was slowed by the sudden appearance of goblins and orcs.

"Are you sure that the person who saved you was that male student?" Hijiri reconfirmed Setsuka's words.

"I'm sure." Setsuka answered briefly.

"Then, don't you think he might have died from getting hit by that fireball?" Hijiri said bluntly.

Setsuka stopped her footsteps, and the atmosphere around her changed when she heard that. She turned to Hijiri and glared at her.

"He's still alive, and I'm sure of that. If you dare say that one more time, I will fight you to the death!" Setsuka said angrily and released killing intent at Hijiri.

Kaede was taken aback by Setsuka's exaggerated response. Her emotions have become unstable ever since Tenku sacrificed himself to save her. Setsuka becomes more irritable when it comes to things related to Tenku.

"Hey... how did you know that? The fireball could instantly kill a senior Realizer in the asteroid phase. So how could a first-year student who had just awakened his Phantasmal Object survive?" Hijiri grinned fearlessly at Setsuka's threat, and she provoked her instead.

"You!" Setsuka was about to swing her sword at Hijiri, but Kaede quickly stopped her.

"Stop it, Setsuka!" Kaede stood between the two girls. Then she turned and looked at Hijiri seriously.

"Please pay attention to your words, Hijiri. I know what you say is not wrong. But you also have to understand Setsuka's feelings. After all, that male student was the one who saved her." Kaede warned, and Hijiri shrugged in response. When Kaede wanted to say something to Setsuka, the other party had already walked away from them while leaving behind a word.

"I'm sure he's still alive because my intuition told me that." Setsuka said confidently and ran into the forest. Hijiri and Kaede couldn't help but sigh and quickly followed suit.

Not long after, Kaede and the others finally found one of the groups of students and teachers who managed to escape from the hordes of monsters. When they saw the three girls appear, the students and teachers became excited because their situation would be safer with Setsuka's group.

"Is the number of students who managed to escape from the monster only this much, teacher?" Kaede asked the teacher and looked around her. The number of students in the place was only about twenty out of the nearly one hundred people participating in the mission.

"Ooh, Fuyushima, Natsukawa and also Kobayashi. I'm glad you're safe. The students ran in different directions as the wyvern attacked. But you don't have to worry. The senior Realizers and the other teachers had followed where the students had gone. So their current situation should be safe unless a wyvern or other fourth-level monster appears in their location." The teacher explained.

"I hope they will be okay." Kaede muttered after hearing that. She didn't know where the black-robed person had gone after the explosion and what he planned to do next. If that person suddenly appeared in one of the directions the students fled, then it would be very dangerous for them.

"Yes. But our situation will be fine if you are here, Kobayashi." The teacher smiled.

"But we can't continue to stay in this place. We should join the others and leave this area immediately to report it to the organization. In this area, we can't use dimension watches and smartphones because the black-robed person has used a jamming device to interfere with our communication signal." Kaede suggested.

"We have the same thoughts as you. But we couldn't do that because the ogres and orcs were waiting for us when we came out of this forest. Within this group, only I can fight the ogres. The rest were only first-year students, and they couldn't fight orcs. Because of that, we decided to postpone until we joined the second or third-year students." The teacher smiled bitterly.

"But with you guys with us, we can quickly get out of here and join the rest of the group. The faster, the better." The teacher added.

"Then we can leave now. What do you think, Setsuka? Huh?" Kaede turned around and spoke to Setsuka, but the other party was no longer behind her.

"If you're looking for Setsuka, she's there." Hijiri pointed at Setsuka, who was walking towards a group of two males and one female student.

They are Akina, Takaya and Noboru. Their faces were gloomy after knowing they didn't find Tenku in that group and weren't allowed to leave that place to look for him.

Setsuka walked slowly toward them. She knew Tenku's relationship with the three people and must tell them about the matter.

Takaya and Noboru were shocked when they noticed that Setsuka was approaching them. On the other hand, Akina was confused by why the student council president had suddenly come to their place. But she didn't have time to think about that because the most important thing right now was finding Tenku.

"Can I borrow you for a minute?" Setsuka said nervously. After standing in front of them, he was confused about how to deliver the news.

"Of course, you can. Is there anything we can help you with, Miss Fuyushima?" Takaya replied. If it weren't for Tenku, who suddenly disappeared, he would be happy to respond to Setsuka. But now he is busy thinking about the situation of his best friend.

Akina was silent because she thought Setsuka had come to them to discuss their current situation. The first-year students who awakened the B-ranked Phantasmal Object in that place were just her and Takaya. Because of that, Setsuka approached them. Akina felt that Takaya could talk about it with Setsuka alone without her having to interfere.

On the other hand, Noboru's face brightened when he saw Setsuka coming and talking to them. Unlike the two, he hadn't known Tenku for long. Although Noboru considers him a friend, the relationship is not as close as Akina and Takaya's.

"Yes. I came to you because I wanted to tell you something." Setsuka did not know where to start the explanation. She was sure that they would be sad after hearing the news.

"What is that, Miss Fuyushima?" Takaya feels that Setsuka's behavior isn't what it used to be. As he recalled, Setsuka was a cold and decisive student council president. But the girl now said hesitantly and looked hard to convey something to them.

(is this related to the current situation? Or is it just related to us?)

Takaya muttered in his heart. Somehow he felt that his last thought was the right one even though he didn't know what it was until he heard it himself from Setsuka's mouth.

"It's about your friend. He got hit by the fireball from the wyvern to save me and fell into the big hole." Setsuka squeezed her words out and finally managed to say that news to them.

Takaya, Noboru, and Akina fell silent because they were confused by Setsuka's words. They didn't know which friend she was referring to because she didn't mention his name. Although they do not have many friends in high school, at least the amount is above ten. But their bodies trembled when Akina and the other two people remembered about Tenku, who suddenly disappeared.

"Is the person you mean in your words named Tenku?" Akina asked in a trembling voice because she was afraid that her guess was right. If that person is Tenku, he must now be in a dangerous situation or may be dead.

"Yes." Setsuka nodded slightly and did not dare to look directly at Akina's face.

"How could Tenku save you!? I'm sure he was far away from your location, Miss Fuyushima! Could you be wrong to recognize people!?" Akina raised her voice in disbelief. She hopes that Setsuka will give a doubtful answer.

"I'm sure it's him. As for how he did it, I don't know either." Setsuka replied confidently. Her words made Akina lose her strength to stand up and kneel.

"Akina!" Takaya and Noboru shouted in worry when they were in Akina's state. Takaya and Noboru shouted worriedly when they saw Akina's condition. Setsuka intends to say anything else to them, but the mockery of the students around interrupts her.

"Hoo… So that weak student wanted to act like a hero saving the beauty but instead made him die in the end." The male student said in a loud voice to tell the people around him.

Takaya, Akina, and Noboru were furious when they heard that. But before they had time to do something, Setsuka suddenly moved towards that student and slapped him hard.

SLAP!

"This is a warning for you! If you say bad things about him once again, I will make you a disabled person!" Setsuka said coldly and threatened the male student.
